Title:
Product field standard_price should use 'Purchase Price' precision
instead of 'Account' precision
Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
In Progress
Bug description:
The product_product.standard_price field gets its precision level from
the 'Account' entry, and not from the 'Purchase Price' entry of the
decimal_precision table. In my opinion, it would make more sense to
use the 'Purchase Price' entry.
The scenario I'm thinking of is when products are purchased in bulk so
that the individual price might be very small. For example, a company
might order 5000 screws each month for a total of $6.00. In that case,
the price would be $0.0012 per screw. All the accounting entries could
be held to the nearest cent (two decimal places), but the purchase
price requires four decimal places in this case.
I tested the behaviour in version 6.0.1.
